Chapter 406

~7 min read 1,326 words

Sun Wukong looked at Yang Chan talking to herself over there and felt like she was some kind of flood beast, "Hey, you don't have anything else to do, do you? If not, hurry up and leave, I've finished handing out the flyers, getting ready to open tomorrow."

Having said those words to drive away customers, it seemed Sun Wukong really had a taboo about this matter.

Yang Chan regretted a little saying that to Sun Wukong, for if she hadn't said it, she could still have let Sun Wukong assist her.

Saying that actually made Sun Wukong wary of her, this uncultured monkey is really terrifying, I can't even tell what adjective she used.

Yang Chan originally didn't plan to stay long, after speaking she picked up her precious lotus lantern and stood up, "Shopkeeper Chen, didn't you say whether you like or dislike Nüwa?"

"My master won't like Nüwa."

Sun Wukong said firmly.

Yang Chan was a little surprised, "Why?"

"You people still fantasize about dragging my master into trouble, I tell you, that's fundamentally impossible, my master likes no one, he only likes money, so you'd better stop worrying about it one or two of you."

Sun Wukong said with his arms crossed over his chest.

If Chen Nuo were here, he would surely kick Sun Wukong out, for he likes money but also likes beautiful women, if this got out, what would we do if no woman liked him in the future? Sun Wukong naturally didn't consider that much, but Yang Chan's earlier words were too terrifying, so he nipped the bud in the cradle.

"What nonsense are you spouting, Sun Monkey? You don't even know what your master thinks, how can you arbitrarily make decisions for him?"

A spicy voice came from outside the door, drawing everyone's attention inside, Yang Chan turned her head and saw Nüwa's mount, Xuan Feng.

Sun Wukong had an expression of utter indifference, "I can't make decisions for my master, but I can tell him not to do such indifferent things, this is called risk avoidance, do you understand?"

Xuan Feng said to the people at the doorway: "Lady, don't listen to Sun Monkey's nonsense, he just doesn't understand anything and talks nonsense."

Nüwa's face showed no expression, maintaining the demeanor befitting a Holy Person.

In reality, to outsiders Nüwa has always maintained this aloof and noble posture, only in front of Chen Nuo does she return to her original nature, and only Chen Nuo can make her forget her identity as a Holy Person.

Yang Chan bowed to Nüwa, "I pay my respects, Lady Nüwa."

Nüwa nodded slightly.

In fact, Yang Chan's inner thoughts had already been heard clearly by Nüwa through her inner voice, but she had no intention of quarreling with Yang Chan over this.

In Nüwa's heart, this little immortal with only a few thousand years of cultivation, not even a fraction of her own, is not worth her attention.

Yang Chan had already been quite nervous before facing Nüwa, and knowing her romantic rival was Nüwa made her even more flustered.

Especially now that Nüwa's true self stood before her, that aura pressed so hard she could barely breathe, she truly didn't want to stay here.

Thus Yang Chan looked at Sun Wukong and said, "Great Chef Sun Wukong, then I'll take my leave first."

"Go on, go on."

Sun Wukong waved his hand.

Yang Chan bowed again to Nüwa, "Lady Nüwa, I'm leaving first."

Just as Yang Chan rose to leave, Nüwa called out to her, "Wait a moment."

Yang Chan stopped, slowly turned her head, "What's wrong?"

Nüwa examined Yang Chan up and down, "You also like him."

It goes without saying who this him is, even without saying the name, Yang Chan knows Nüwa is referring to him.

If Sun Wukong had just said Nüwa likes Chen Nuo, she might even have given herself a bit of hope, Nüwa merely appreciates Chen Nuo.

But this appreciation made Sun Wukong mistakenly think it was liking, now Nüwa called her over and asked if she also likes Chen Nuo, which truly left Yang Chan with not even a shred of hope.

Indeed, even a Holy Person like Nüwa might like Chen Nuo? "The Lady is asking you a question, why aren't you answering?"

Yang Chan remained silent, Xuan Feng couldn't help but speak up, "What's wrong with you little immortal, facing Lady Nüwa and actually daring to be negligent?"

"Xuan Feng"

Nüwa called Xuan Feng to stop, "You're disobedient, I punish you with house arrest."

Xuan Feng froze, she had always been spoken to this way before and Nüwa never punished her, now to punish her in front of a romantic rival, why? "Lady"

Xuan Feng looked at Nüwa with a face full of grievance.

Nüwa paid no attention to Xuan Feng, but looked at Yang Chan, waiting for her answer.

"Yes, I really do like him."

Yang Chan nodded in reply.

I originally thought Nüwa would rely on her status to suppress me, but I didn't expect she wouldn't, and even rebuked her disrespectful mount.

Now Yang Chan's sense of crisis is even more severe, Nüwa not only has high cultivation, her conduct is also beyond her reach.

"Why do you like him?"

Nüwa asked Yang Chan, seemingly also asking herself.

Clearly just having eaten a few meals cooked by Chen Nuo, I didn't expect to be attracted by him entirely.

Before this, I seemed never to have had interest in any person or thing, so I don't know whether I'm attracted by Chen Nuo's cooking skills or by Chen Nuo himself.

"I..."

Yang Chan couldn't utter a word all of a sudden, truly not knowing where to begin.

I don't know from when, Chen Nuo's figure has occasionally appeared in my mind.

Was it from the first sight of him, eating the beef noodles started, or later always coming together with my elder brother to Chaos Residence?

From where I began to like Chen Nuo, I no longer remember, only knowing that from when I realized I liked Chen Nuo, he has already been like a thorn stuck in my heart.

"It seems you don't understand either."

Nüwa smiled lightly.

Yang Chan was stunned by Nüwa's smile, originally her appearance already made people unable to look away yet afraid to look.

Now this smile, all things in the world seem to have lost their color, her smile outshines everything else.

Such a goddess actually likes the same person as I do, Yang Chan couldn't help but think, this world is truly wonderful.

"Don't be afraid, you like him, I won't do anything to you."

Nüwa thought Yang Chan was afraid of her, so she didn't dare speak.

Yang Chan nodded, "Good."

"If one more person likes Chen Nuo, it shows my judgment is good, Chen Nuo is indeed an excellent person, but I won't drive away the people around him like in the Mortal Realm, I won't lay a hand on you."

Nüwa glanced at Yang Chan and continued: "We compete fairly, I hope you won't give up either, Chen Nuo is a different person, he won't deliberately like me because of my status, whether you like him or I like him, in the end it still depends on him."

Yang Chan was only timid in love, she indeed had no intention of giving up, hearing Nüwa say this, her timid heart suddenly gained strength.

"Thank you, Nüwa Sanniang, but I indeed have no intention of giving up."

"Is that so?"

Nüwa smiled lightly, her mental activity naturally couldn't escape her own ability, but she didn't say it out, "You really surprised me, I thought you were that kind of timid person, it seems you're not."

"Just as Nüwa Sanniang you said, we compete fairly.

"Yang Chan said, "I will also do my best to pursue him with my strength."

"That's a good way to think."

Nüwa nodded.
